PITTSBURGH, PA —

It was over when...
With the scores tied at 16-16 Lones Seiber hit a 28 yard field goal with just 2 seconds remaining giving Pittsburgh a two game win streak.

Game Ball
Lones Seiber hit 4 field goals which proved to be the difference.

The Steelers did not start well with one of the first snaps Ben Roethlisberger went out injured and Dennis Dixon throwing an interception that led to a touchdown drive and a good orchestrated drive followed by backup Kellen Clemens put them up 14-0.

For the second straight week running a defensive interception which led to a touchdown by the Steelers proved to be the difference as Defensive Back of the Year 2010 William Gay returned it 16 yards.

From there on it was an offensive struggle as Pittsburgh eeked it out on field goals.


Dennis Dixon filled in for an injured Ben Roethlisberger for one quarter.
